For those who haven't heard yet: I was very ill and am now on the road to recovery, which also means that I want to, or rather need to, lose a total of around 40 kg of weight. And …

It’s my first post on Hive: a few photos, and some everyday notes from my new corner of Denmark. I’m here to learn how this community works, trin for trin - Schritt für Schritt - a…

In order to keep on changing the scenery every now and then I quickly jumped over to Denmark for the weekend. This was not only for a view switch but actually because my best frien…

The German saying „Nur die Harten komm’ in’ Garten“ actually means that only the toughest will get to enjoy the garden. For me to reach the garden today the beach had the perfect c…

There's a very special story behind today's beer post! I grew up in East Germany until 1989. When I was 12 years old, the wall between East and West Germany was torn down and every…

Actaually my first IPA experience I had in Denmark, where this kind of beer already has been established in grocery stores for years (unlike over here in Germany). So besides other…

I like to suffer suffering! During officer training in the German Armed Forces (wich I went through), you are sometimes sent into the snow-covered forest for a few days to learn h…

Contrary to my usual nature, I'm practically autistic when it comes to running. It always has to be exactly the same route, exactly the same playlist, so that I know exactly how fa…

Just when I told you about the beautiful late summer here in northern Germany - tick - by a fingersnap we change to fall wich means rain, a lot of rain. It’s not just a bit every n…

My inner bastard gently wispered: „You had a hard congress-weekend. You traveled a few hundred kilometers. You just arrived at home.“ Proud he resumed: „Just by walking up and dow…

Hello and a nice sunday everybody! Since my last beer experience has been - lets say "boring" and disappointing, for today I totally have better news. This weekend I traveled to th…

In my last beer post, I wrote about a hand-brewed cellar beer from Bavaria. I was not only surprised, but also totally thrilled by its wonderful, mild, slightly sweet, yet very bee…
